Cutting the cable, lets talk options and media setups

For someone living outside of the Saints market area:

Do you think NFL will ever branch out and allow Sunday Ticket subscriptions for people not on Direct TV?

I know that's one of the only reasons Direct TV can hold on to subscribers right now. Apple TV has the Sunday Ticket app, but it's only available for subscribers and that's only for people that are outside of the Direct TV viewing area.

A few yrs ago, in 2012 or 2013, i lived outside the Saints market area and wasnt a DirectTV customer, but there was a promo where you could buy Madden NFL for $99 and get a free code to watch every NFL game live on your computer or phone... Now, i hadnt played a video game in over 25 yrs at that point so i couldnt have cared less about the game, but i spent the $99 , gave the game to my nephew, and had access to every Saints game that year.. as luck would have it, almost all 16 games were on TV that year, either prime time or the game of the week or whatever, and i think i only used the code twice... the following year, the promo was no longer being offered and of course, only a handful of Saints games were on TV and i had no way to view the other games.. in any case, you might want to keep your eyes peeled to see if anything similar is offered this year.
